The day summer arrived and it got stinking hot. This shot was taken at 5am and not a cloud in sight. The days temperature climbed up to 40.2°C in Brisbane. Summer is over is just over a week. This morning was certainly what I would expect in winter, crisp, vibrant and cloudless. Keep it coming…love it

Point Piquet is beautifully situated on Geographe Bay, close to Dunsborough, Western Australia. It is sheltered from the ravages of the Indian Ocean by Cape Naturaliste with the result that it is seldom very rough. I should add that the threatened storm didn’t materialise and within half an hour there wasn’t a cloud to be seen.
The gorgeous and infamous Jetty in Busselton which is the longest in the southern hemisphere and its a big sphere…. Because the shallow waters of Geographe Bay restricted ship movement, a long jetty was required so that the cut timber could be transported to the ships. In 1839 Governor Hutt appointed “the place in Geographe Bay opposite the Settlement at The Vasse to be the legal place for the loading and unloading of goods”. The jetty commenced construction in 1853 after persistent pressure by settlers. In 1865 the first section of the jetty became available for ships to moor. In 1875 an additional 131 metres was added to the original structure, as over 10 years of drift sands had made the depth of the water too shallow for mooring. The jetty was continually extended until the 1960s when it reached its current length of 1841 metres.
A fantastic calm morning on Bussleton jetty. Love this area there is nothing better than retiring to a warm breakfast nearby after a cold start to the day! Shot taken in February 2008.

This is an old jetty that has been restored or renewed fairly recently (since I last came here in March anyway). It’s right next to Australia’s longest jetty in Busselton. I’ve only used a ND8 Grad in this shot.. as I left my ND8 where I was staying.. oops. All comments appreciated - paul / http://www.paulmp.com.au
Nikon D90, VR 18-55mm / F4 @ 1/350s Shelley Cove is located in the Geographe Bay area of our very beautiful south west. Here you will find lovely walk trails at Cape Naturaliste /
Another angle on this most delightful and secluded spot at the far end of Geographe Bay almost at the tip of Cape Naturaliste, some 320 kms south of Perth, Western Australia. Despite it’s proximity to the Indian Ocean it is seldom much rougher than this although there was a time, many millions of years ago, when the ocean level was quite a few metres higher than it is now, as can be seen by the various strata on the cliff. Sony Alpha 350 / 18-70 lens at full zoom with x4 ND filter attached / Aperture preferred (f5.6)

Busselton, which is on the shores of Geographe Bay some 250 kms south of Perth in Western Australia is the only ocean side town in the south of the state that faces due north. Thus it gets more than the average quota of sunshine. The sheltered waters of the bay also ensure that it is seldom rough.
